I want one! I'd love to fire that thing up at 4 AM on a sunday morning and watch the porch lights light up in the neighborhood.  Shocked

(It needs chains on the tires or it'll go nowhere really fast)

I could've used that thing last winter when I woke up one day and found ~5ft. of snow drifted up against my garage door.

Try living in England... A dusting of ice, or 2 millimetres of snow makes the government close our roads, airports and schools  Roll Eyes

You can blame the British Government for many things but it's not responsible for any of the above. Tongue

Fortunately I spent my youth in northern Illinois, and while I did NOT learn to drive there I picked up the necessary techniques of winter driving from my family.  But just because I can drive in the snow and and ice does NOT mean the other Atlanta natives can.  Car accidents NOT caused by me are my greatest concern.

I wasn't really calling you sissies, just joking. Wink  I understand the south doesn't get snow, thus doesn't have the techniques needed for winter driving.

Even in places that do get snow, there are plenty of people who don't know how to deal with it. Sometimes, when I see some idiot sliding all over the road and trying to drive to fast, I wonder if they even remember the previous winter. Roll Eyes

No offense was taken Fox, just that snow in Atlanta IS a serious event.  People in this town drive horribly (myself included, ha ha) and accidents are frequent enough on nice days, let alone days with inclement weather.  Georgia could do with a REQUIRED driver's education course in high school.
